Method and apparatus for device setup

A method comprising:

• receiving, from a user device, biometric data relating to a peripheral device and other biometric data collected by the user device from a wearer of the user device;
• determining whether at least a portion of the biometric data is a same type and is associated with a same period as a corresponding portion of the other biometric data;
• using the biometric data or the other biometric data to search a database for a biometric identification corresponding to the biometric data or the other biometric data;
• transmitting to the user device an indication indicative of whether the user device and the peripheral device are attached to a same user;
• and
• in an instance in which the user device and the peripheral device are attached to the same user, retrieving configuration data related to the user device or the peripheral device, and transmitting the configuration data to the user device,
• wherein the configuration data comprises at least one of a threshold level, a measurement accuracy, or an identification number assigned for the peripheral device.

An apparatus comprising at least one processor and at least one memory including computer program code, the at least one memory and the computer program code configured to, with the at least one processor, cause the apparatus to perform at least the following:

• receive, at the apparatus, biometric data from a peripheral device;
• cause the apparatus to collect other biometric data from a wearer of the apparatus;
• transmit the biometric data and the other biometric data to a server;
• receive from the server an indication as to whether the server has compared the biometric data and the other biometric data to determine that the apparatus and the peripheral device are attached to a same user;
• and
• in an instance in which the user device receives the indication that the apparatus and the peripheral device are attached to the same user, the at least one memory and the computer program code are further configured to, with the at least one processor, cause the apparatus to perform at least the following:
• receive, from the server configuration data comprising at least one of a threshold level, a measurement accuracy, or an identification number assigned for the peripheral device;
• and
• use the configuration data for configuring at least one of the apparatus or the peripheral device.

An apparatus comprising at least one processor;

• and at least one memory including computer program code, the at least one memory and the computer program code configured to, with the at least one processor, cause the apparatus to perform at least the following:
• receive, from a user device, biometric data relating to a peripheral device and other biometric data measured by the user device and associated with a wearer of the user device;
• determine whether at least a portion of the biometric data is a same type and is associated with a same period as a corresponding portion of the other biometric data;
• use the biometric data or the other biometric data to search a database for a biometric identification corresponding to the biometric data or the other biometric data;
• transmit, to the user device, an indication indicative of whether the user device and the peripheral device are attached to a same user;
• and
• in an instance in which the user device and the peripheral device are attached to the same user, retrieve configuration data related to the user device or the peripheral device, and transmit the configuration data to the user device,
• wherein the configuration data comprises at least one of a threshold level, a measurement accuracy, or an identification number assigned for the peripheral device.
